The Modulatory Role of Heme Oxygenase on Subpressor Angiotensin II-Induced Hypertension and Renal Injury

The Modulatory Role of Heme Oxygenase on Subpressor Angiotensin II-Induced Hypertension and Renal Injury

Angiotensin II (AngII) causes hypertension (HTN) and promotes renal injury while simultaneously inducing reno-protective enzymes like heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). We examined the modulatory role of HO on sub-pressor angiotensin II (SP-AngII) induced renal inflammation and injury. We first tested whether...
